Answer:
Sally's temperature is 97.27 °F.
Step-by-step explanation:
All the information given in the question tells us that the human body temperatures are normally distributed with a population's mean = 98.20°F and a standard deviation = 0.62°F.
The question gives us Sally's temperature in a <em>z-score</em>. We have to remember that the <em>standard normal distribution</em> is a particular case of a <em>normal distribution</em> where the mean = 0 and the standard deviation = 1.
Using <em>the standard normal distribution,</em> we can determine every probability associated with a normal distribution "transforming" the raw scores, coming from normally distributed data, into z-scores.
A z-score gives us the distance from the population's mean and is in standard deviation units. So, a z = 1.5 tells us that the value is 1.5 standard deviations <em>above the mean</em>. Conversely, a z = -1.5 tells us that the raw score is also 1.5 standard deviation from the mean, but in the opposite direction, that is, <em>below the mean</em>.
The formula for a z-score is as follows:
(1)

.
Then to find <em>x </em>(or the raw score, that is, Sally's temperature), we need to solve the formula (1) for it to finally solve the question.
Then

Thus (with no units)
°F
Thus, Sally's temperature is °F (rounding the answer to the nearest hundredth).
Answer:
200 students attended the basketball game
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question in the attached figure
Let
x ------> the number of students in fourth grade
s -----> the number of students at the basketball game
we know that
The number of students at the basketball game is four times the number of students in fourth grade
so
The linear expression is
-----> equation A
-----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
therefore
200 students attended the basketball game
